Description from the seller
Vintage Furniture, Rustic Industrial lot of 4 pieces antique agricultural tools and measuring instruments – Early 20th century
Description:
We propose a fascinating lot composed of authentic working tools from the early 1900s.
Classic lever balance with graduated rod, hooks and counterweight (the brass/bronze part). The hallmarks from 1910 indicate an authentic vintage object, probably of Italian manufacture (the crown above the "72" suggests an official metrological verification). The structure retains its original patina and shows the typical natural oxidation of forged iron, which testifies to its authenticity.
Oil lamp / Hanging support: Wrought iron artifact with original chains. Presents evident signs of age that confer to the piece a unique rustic character
Pair of hammers/mallets: Made of solid wood, show signs of use consistent with the era. The wood has acquired a dark, lived-in tone, very decorative, probably used for carpentry, striking or agricultural work
The objects are presented in authentic conservation conditions, they have not undergone modern restorations. Please carefully view the photographs to assess the condition of each individual item, which constitute an integral part of the description. They present an original patina, signs of use and time, natural oxidation and authentic preservation.
